Product Description

The Naso Tang, also known as the Orangespine Unicornfish, darkens with
maturity. Naso Tangs from Hawaii are often more brightly colored than
those found in other areas. As a juvenile, the Naso Tang from Hawaii is
dark gray with a blue stripe following along the dorsal fin and an
orange stripe in the anal fin. When matured, the body takes on a
reddish-brown tone and the juvenile striping is supplemented with
additional color. The tail takes on a lyre shape with a yellow vertical
bar towards the back. Two orange patches appear at the peduncle spines
near the tail. The face undergoes the largest change. A thin, black mask
forms between the eyes and mouth. The mask is outlined with bright
yellow and the lips develop a reddish-orange color.A 180 gallon or larger aquarium is necessary to provide plenty of
swimming room, and places to hide, with a tight-fitting lid provided to
prevent jumping to escape. It is aggressive towards other tangs, but
peaceful with other fish in the tank.Although Tangs will eat meaty foods along with the other fish in the
aquarium, it is important that they are offered plenty of marine based
seaweed and algae. This will strengthen their immune system, reduce
aggression and improve their overall health. Offer dried seaweed tied to
a rock or use a
veggie clip, and feed at least 3 times per week.
Sea Veggies,
Seaweed Salad and
Ocean Nutrition are all ideal products and are very easy to use.
